As a contrast to the work of Annette Messager, please read the review
in the New Yorker of the Jeff Koons retrospective at the MOCA Chicago.
Koons is a contemporary Andy Warhol and has long been an 'art star'. I think you'll find that what the art critic Peter Schejeldahl, also an artworld 'star', says is quite bold.
Consider his opening statement: "Major artists X-ray the cultures that give rise to them."
Check out the Art is Alive blog, with a Jeff Koons spot.
